* Complete search queries as you type with built-in Google Suggest.
* Flip through full-page previews of your browsing history in Cover Flow the same way you flip through album art in iTunes.
Every Mac comes with built-in technologies designed to help people with disabilities experience it. Innovations in Snow Leopard advance accessibility even further.
* Control your Mac using gestures on your Multi-Touch trackpad. And when you drag your finger across the trackpad, VoiceOver speaks the items you touch so you know how they’re arranged on the screen.

* New accessibility features make web browsing easier, faster, and more enjoyable.
